I missed that post.
If someone who is born female identifies as a male, and expects to have the same rights as men, they are promoting left wing views. The left is very much concerned with equality. The idea that "the left are eating themselves" is based on the notion that they seem to abandon equality as soon as someone they don't like expects to be treated the same as someone they do like. To truly support left wing ideals, you need to accept that white males are also entitled to equality. To treat a woman who identifies as a male with contempt because she is white, that is the opposite of equality.
I think it's fair to say the compnay in question are left wing, or at least identify as such. No right wing or politically neutral company will see any benefit to hiring a "diversity officer", whatever the fuck that is.
The trans person, I don't think it matters if he's left wing or not. He probably is, but that's a guess based on his genderqueerness. They tend to lean left because they want to be treated as normal people, so it's natural for them to tend in that direction. Of course, it's not a given. Chelsea Manning doesn't come across as particularly left wing, not that I know a great deal about her other than she slipped secrets about Clinton to Assange when she was a he. Seems pretty anti-left to me. So yeah, it's not a given, though I'd say it's a reasonable assumption. That said, I also think the trannie's ideology is irrelevant in the matter. It's the company's ideology that is relevant here.
